Abstract:
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy; thus developing new treatment options is urgently required. Molecular targeted therapies for cancers, which are generally more tolerable than widely used cytotoxic agents, have shown highly specific inhibition of target molecules. We previously identified bone marrow stromal antigen 2 (BST2) as an endometrial cancer antigen using iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic technology focused on cell surface membrane proteins, and also demonstrated the usefulness of an anti-BST2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) for endometrial cancer. In this study, we aimed to identify a new ovarian cancer antigen. We also aimed to develop a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb) and evaluate its preclinical efficacy against ovarian cancer. To identify a new ovarian cancer antigen, cell surface membrane proteins of normal ovarian epithelial and ovarian cancer cell lines were analyzed by iTRAQ-based proteomic technology. As the new therapeutic target for ovarian cancer, we identified lipolysis-stimulated lipoprotein receptor (LSR) which had one of the largest significant differences in protein level between normal ovarian epithelial and ovarian cancer cell lines. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that the overall survival of ovarian serous carcinoma patients with high LSR expression was significantly shorter than those with low LSR (p = 0.0293). We newly developed anti-LSR mAb and investigated its preclinical efficacy. Anti-LSR mAb showed significant in vivo inhibition of tumor growth against a xenograft model of hLSR-positive ovarian cancer in an antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) independent manner (p = 0.0001). And anti-LSR mAb also induced G0/G1 cell cycle arrest by regulation of MEK and p44/42 MAPK activities and expression levels of cell cycle related proteins in vitro. Furthermore, anti-hLSR mAb, which crossreacts with mouse LSR, had little detectable toxicity in mice. In summary, high expression of LSR in ovarian cancer was the poor prognostic factor. Our newly developed anti-LSR mAb showed significant tumor growth inhibition in ADCC and CDC independent manner in vivo. Anti-human LSR mAb also inhibited LSR function and showed direct tumor growth inhibition inducing G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in vitro. Our preclinical data demonstrated that targeting LSR by mAb is a promising therapy for patients with LSR-positive ovarian cancer.
